It's that time of year when the weather is unpredictable, and you just have to go with it. That is exactly what we did for this shoot. We made a plan to shoot a few shots of little miss Harper at my home studio, then move outdoors for the family shots, as well as some shots of just Addie and Paul. It was cold, but Harper was such a little rock star. She didn't seem to mind being shuffled from the warm car to outside then back into the car again until the next family shot. She is such a cute and happy baby, and was a blast to shoot. Her parents are such a good looking couple, and are so photogenic, which made the whole shoot easy as pie despite the weather.
Enjoy your sneak peek! It was great to meet you, and you have such a beautiful family! Harper has the prettiest blue eyes. I love this below photo-so sweet.
So I bought this purple chair with the intention of using it for newborns, but kept it in my car for this shoot just in case. Well you can imagine I was thrilled when these little ladies hopped out of the van in these adorable dresses.
The girls were great and so easy to photograph. Plus those blue eyes....SOO photogenic. They obviously get those from their mom. We started without dad, and then moved into the family photos a little later in the shoot which always works really well since girls usually like photos way more than guys do.
It was great photographing your wonderful family. Enjoy your sneak peek, and thanks for coordinating with my newest prop :)
About a month ago I randomly ran into Holly in downtown Bozeman. She was my high school Spanish teacher, and it had been quite a while since I had seen her. We quickly caught up, and I told her that I was now a photographer. I actually used to be late to her class quite a bit because I had a photo class right before hers, and I never made it out of the dark room on time. She was actually wanting to get some family photos done so I gave her a card and within a couple days she emailed me to set up a session. I was so excited. I had always gotten along really well with Holly, and was excited to meet her family. She was pregnant with Avery my senior year, and I remember talking about baby names, and baby stuff in general during class. (In Spanish of course.) I took three years of Spanish with Holly and during that time got to know her pretty well since we did do a lot of chatting in order to learn the language.
Well we pretty much picked up with the chatting the second I arrived at her home. (In English as my Spanish is not so good these days) She lives in Springhill, and it was the perfect location for this shoot. Her kids are adorable, and Avery loved posing for the camera. Cooper was more into being a little boy than having his photos taken, and he cracked me up throughout the shoot. Poor Scott was sick, but you wouldn't know it judging by the photos.
Thanks for having me out to your home! It was wonderful to catch up and meet your family. Enjoy your sneak peek.
